Briefing: Iran and US exchange messages, ECB prepares digital euro pilot
- —Iran said it exchanged messages with the US via intermediaries, without disclosing details
- —The ECB will run a year-long pilot of real digital euro payments from late 2027
- —Initia's USDC bridge reserves shrank from $1.09M to $63, with 55 failed withdrawals
- —Crypto liquidations over 24 hours totaled $56.6M, 64.28% of them shorts
Why it matters: The digital euro pilot and Iran geopolitics set the market backdrop, while Initia's bridge failure highlights cross-chain risk.
